The working group is concerned with current topics and questions in clinical development and clinical trials as well as the implementation of GCP and regulatory guidelines in practice.

Topics are current legal and regulatory guidelines (national and international) as well as questions from practice e.g. electronic CRFs, SOPs, archiving or clinical studies in special patient groups. In addition, members report on advanced training seminars. Overall, discussions and exchange of experience are the important components of the working group meetings.

The working group currently has more than 50 members from pharmaceutical companies and CROs, or they are consultants in the clinical research field. The working group meets regularly three times per year. The meetings take place at different locations, with a member organizing and arranging the meeting.
